Cajeput oil

Cajeput oil (CAS 8008-98-8), also known by its FEMA 2225 designation, is a steam-distilled essential oil derived from the leaves and twigs of Melaleuca cajuputi. It functions as a flavoring agent, fragrance ingredient, and active botanical across personal care, pharmaceutical, and food applications.

In oral care and topical pharmaceutical formulations, this oil contributes a characteristic camphoraceous, medicinal scent and flavor that supports product positioning in therapeutic-adjacent categories. Flavor manufacturers use it to impart warm, spicy-eucalyptus notes in confectionery and cough drops.

It is frequently utilized in functional food products where a cooling or medicinal profile is required. Personal care formulators incorporate it into scalp treatments, muscle rubs, and cleansing products as a fragrance component with recognized botanical appeal.

In home care and industrial cleaning products, it functions as a natural solvent-compatible fragrance that reinforces a clean, fresh sensory signature. This versatility makes it a staple ingredient for manufacturers seeking natural aromatic solutions.

The product is supplied as a mobile, pale yellow to colorless liquid. It is available in food-grade quality conforming to established standards, as well as cosmetic and pharmaceutical grades meeting relevant regional specifications for purity and safety.

Bulk supply is typically offered in drums or smaller packaging to serve both industrial formulators and specialty buyers. Our quality control ensures that every batch meets the rigorous demands of the global chemical and fragrance markets.
